You have that right. Never write checks with your mouth that your a$$ can't cash. I have been with women who jump out of the car to run up to the other car to confront the driver over some slight real or imagined. Always managed to convince them to get back in the car as they are looking to find out who is carrying a gun or recently were paroled. A friend of mine used to carry a small fire extinguisher in his car not only for fire prevention but to dissuade those who would try to open your door and pull you out over some trivial incident. It effectively calms some one down when their mouth,eyes and nose are drenched in fire retardant.
lol... Never heard it put that way before.
The fire extinguisher is a good idea.
